MANUALS FOR THEOLOGICAL STUDENTS,

UNIFORMLY PRINTED AND BOUND.

This Series of Theological Manuals has been published with the aim of supplying books concise, comprehensive, and accurate, convenient for the Student and yet interesting to the general reader.

I.

Introduction to the Study of the Gospels. By BROOKE
Foss WESTCOTT, M.A. formerly Fellow of Trinity College,
Cambridge.
Crown 8vo. cloth, 10s. 6d.

"The worth of Mr. Westcott's volume for the spiritual interpretation of the Gospels is greater than we can readily express even by the most grateful and approving words. It presents with an unparalleled completeness-the characteristic of the book everywhere being this completeness-wholeness of view, comprehensiveness of representation, the fruits of sacred learning.”—NON

CONFORMIST.

II.

A General View of the History of the Canon of the New Testament during the FIRST FOUR CENTURIES. By BROOKE FOSS WESTCOTT, M.A.

:

Crown 8vo. cloth, 12s. 6d.

"The Author is one of those who are teaching us that it is possible to rifle the storehouses of German theology, without bearing away the taint of their atmosphere and to recognise the value of their accumulated treasures, and even track the vagaries of their theoretic ingenuity, without abandoning in the pursuit the clear sight and sound feeling of English common sense. It is by far the best and most complete book of the kind; and we should be glad to see it well placed on the lists of our examining chaplains.”—GUARDIAN. "Learned, dispassionate, discriminating, worthy of his subject, and the present state of Christian Literature in relation to it."-BRITISH QUARTERLY.

"To the student in Theology it will prove an admirable Text-Book: and to all others who have any curiosity on the subject it will be satisfactory as one of the most useful and instructive pieces of history which the records of the Church supply."-LONDON QUARTERLY.

THEOLOGICAL MANUALS-continued.

III.

History of the Christian Church, during the Middle Ages and the Reformation (A.D. 590-1600). By the Venerable CHARLES HARDWICK, Archdeacon of Ely.

2 vols. crown 8vo. 10s. 6d. each.

Vol. I. History of the Church to the Excommunication of Luther.
With Four Maps.

Vol. II. History of the Reformation.

Each Volume may be had separately.

"Full in references and authority, systematic and formal in division, with enough of life in the style to counteract the dryness inseparable from its brevity, and exhibiting the results rather than the principles of investigation. MR. HARDWICK is to be congratulated on the successful achievement of a difficult task." -CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER.

"He has bestowed patient and extensive reading on the collection of his materials; he has selected them with judgment; and he presents them in an equable and compact style."-SPECTATOR.

"To a good method and good materials MR. HARDWICK adds that great virtue, a perfectly transparent style. We did not expect to find great literary qualities in such a manual, but we have found them; we should be satisfied in this respect with conciseness and intelligibility; but while this book has both, it is also elegant, highly finished, and highly interesting."-NONCONFORMIST.

IV.

several Offices. By FRANCIS
Norfolk, formerly Fellow of
Fourth Edition, revised and
Crown 8vo. cloth, 10s. 6d.

"MR. PROCTER's History of the Book of Common Prayer' is by far the best commentary extant. Not only do the present illustrations embrace the whole range of original sources indicated by MR. PALMER, but MR. PROCTER compares the present Book of Common Prayer with the Scotch and American forms; and he frequently sets out in full the Sarum Offices. As a manual of extensive information, historical and ritual, imbued with sound Church principles, we are entirely satisfied with MR. PROCTER's important volume."

CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. "It is indeed a complete and fairly-written history of the Liturgy; and from the dispassionate way in which disputed points are touched on, will prove to many troubled consciences what ought to be known to them, viz. :-that they may, without fear of compromising the principles of evangelical truth, give their assent and consent to the contents of the Book of Common Prayer. MR. PROCTER has done a great service to the Church by this admirable digest."
